MOLALLA, Ore. — A Molalla woman missing for nearly two weeks was spotted wandering along a rural road in the Scotts-Mills area, according to the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office. But Janice Ernest, 62, still has not been found safe.

“When contacted during the search, the couple positively identified Ms. Ernest from a photograph. The couple told deputies she was seen walking down Butte Creek Road near Scotts Mills on Friday, March 14,” said Lt. Robert Wurpes. “The couple said Ms. Ernest appeared to be walking fine, and looked a bit dirty, as if she had been walking in the woods. She reportedly actively avoided direct contact with the couple that had seen her.”
